There were incredible scenes in Newbridge as the Offaly Minor Footballers came back from five points down to defeat Louth in the Leinster Minor Football Final by Offaly's 2-20 to 3-14. Offaly snatched victory from the jaws of defeat with a sensational, almost unbelievable win. When they scented blood near the end, Offaly were unstoppable, finding the energy and an extra gear almost out of thin air and a shell shocked Louth team had no answer. They were just blown away in an epic Offaly finish and there were scenes of delirious joy as captain Cian McNamee accepted the cup after the final whistle. Pictures from Sportsfile.
